Using pre-built binary RPM
You need to download and install the Firewall Builder RPM:
Example: fwbuilder-4.2.2.3541-1.el5.i386.rpm
To satisfy dependencies, you need the following packages installed on your system:
libxml2 v2.4.10 or newer
libxslt v1.0.7 o newer
ucd-snmp or net-snmp
QT 4.3.x, 4.4.x, 4.5.x, 4.6.x. Firewall Builder uses features available in QT 4.3 and later; the system does not support version 4.2 and earlier.
Pre-built binary RPMs for RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL 5) and CentOS 5.x
These distributions do not come with QT4, and third-party
binary RPMs of QT v4.3.x and 4.4.x can be difficult to obtain. For these distributions, we
distribute binary RPMs of Firewall Builder 4.0 statically
linked with QT 4.4.1. These RPMs are
posted in the Downloads area of the SourceForge project
site. These RPMs have the same standard
names fwbuilder-4.2.2.3541-1.el5.i386.rpm
,
but they have no dependency on QT RPMs.
If a Firewall Builder V3.0 distribution statically linked with QT crashes on start
on your CentOS system, please upgrade to the latest version of Firewall Builder. If you
need to run Firewall Builder V3.0 please make sure you have the following font packages
installed: bitmap-fonts
or bitstream-vera-fonts
.
Either one resolves the issue and will enable Firewall Builder to work.
To install Firewall Builder, navigate to your download directory and execute the following command (replacing the filename with the name of the files you actually downloaded):
rpm -i fwbuilder-4.0.0-1.i386.rpm
